Hi there!! I'm Délice! 34 years old, mama to three prereading boys and lifelong bibliophile. My current favorite genres are YA fiction, YA fantasy, YA sci-fi, children's books featuring interesting, unique or beautiful illustrations, a good reading cadence, and diversity, kindness and feminist themes! I also have been known to dig a good foodie memoir, travel memoirs, and have read a good amount of classics including Dickens, Austen, Montgomery...

My most recent favorites include the Septimus Heap series, The Search for Wondla series, The Mysterious Benedict Society series and The Star Thief which mesmerized me beyond words! As for Kid Lit, my current faves are Andrea Beatty's incredible memoirs, Not Your Typical Dragon by Dan Bar-El, A Curious Collection of Cats by Betsy Franco and Marianthe's Story by Aliki.

Some books on my To-Read shelf are: Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes by Jonathan Auxier, Spiderweb for Two by Elizabeth Enright, and Look Inside Our World by Emily Bone.

I would love to get on board with receiving reviewing books, since I am ploughing through books at breakneck pace anyways!!

I found the site today via recommendation and have looked around a bit. This seems like a place where anyone can find a home to talk freely about books and reading. I think I'm going to love it here.

Hello! My name is Rebecca. I have been a lover of books for many, many years. I am excited about reading and reviewing new books. I love many genres: romance, fantasy, mystery, true crime, self-help, history, biography, and others I can't think of at the moment. Some of my favorite authors: Patricia Cornwell, Diana Gabaldon, Phillippa Gregory, Michael J. Sullivan, George R. R. Martin, and Alison Weir. Thanks for the opportunity. Free books sound amazing!!

Hello. I'm a "mature" adult who has always loved books. I remember when I was around 10 years old, walking 3 miles to the library and lugging home as many of the Oz series books as I could carry, Then going back for more as soon as I was finished. I don't have a library within walking distance today but would still walk 3 miles to read The Stand, or pretty much any book by King. I much prefer actual hard copies to ebooks- but sometimes I have Alexa read to me.
I followed a Twitter link to get here, But I quit Facebook years ago.

Hello Everyone!
My name is Ivana and I live in the UK. I was born in Skopje, Macedonia, which is a very small country in Europe. It's a lovely place though :)

I love reading, writing, sending out postcards. I used to be a national karate champion for 8 years in a row, but I stopped competing after I moved in the UK.

I don't stick to having an all-time favourite book - but I love good books and they stay with me forever. I am a romance lover, but I also enjoy crime, fantasy, thrillers and I like to discover new books and explore. Sometimes the books we expect the least can surprise us the most.

I am hoping to make a lot of friends and I look forward to discussing books with you! :D
